As the February 6 release date approaches for Puscifer’s fifth studio album, Normal Isn’t, the band is giving fans another reason to visit their local record shops. Select independent retailers will host advance screenings of the new concert film Normal Isn’t: Puscifer Live At The Pacific Stock Exchange, turning album week into a shared, in-person experience.
Maynard James Keenan underscored the importance of those spaces, saying: “Brick and mortar vinyl shops are the lifeblood of independent bands. There is a symbiotic relationship that was almost obliterated by the age of digital downloads and streaming. Thankfully we survived by working together.”
Screenings of Normal Isn’t: Puscifer Live At The Pacific Stock Exchange will take place between February 6 and February 8, with participating retailers handling their own schedules and details. Fans who can’t attend in person will still be able to purchase the concert film online beginning February 9 at noon Pacific, or 3 p.m. Eastern here.
Shot inside Los Angeles’s original stock exchange, an art deco building long rumored to be one of the city’s most haunted locations, the film captures a pivotal moment for Puscifer. It documents the first live performance of Normal Isn’t and introduces a completely reimagined stage production, complete with new costumes and a light show driven by bold graphics. As songs such as “Self Evident,” “Pendulum,” and “Bad Wolf” echo through the granite-lined hall, Maynard James Keenan, Carina Round, Mat Mitchell, Gunnar Olsen, and Josh Moreau deliver a tightly focused, high-energy performance that translates the album’s mood to the stage.
The release of Normal Isn’t coincides with the concert film’s debut and includes the recent singles “Self Evident,” “Pendulum,” and “ImpetuoUs.” Beyond music, Puscifer has also expanded into comics, recently launching Tales From The Pusciverse issue No. 1, which quickly sold out. A second printing is scheduled to arrive on January 25, extending the band’s growing universe into another medium.
